Nestled in the Green Mountains near Killington, Vermont, The Red Clover Inn & Restaurant provides a charming New England experience. The restored 1840s Inn and Carriage House offers 14 accommodations for skiers, hikers, bikers and those looking for a relaxing getaway, nature retreat or group gathering.

Managed by the Tyler Family, whose sister property, The Tyler Place, is one of FTF’s favorite family resorts, it has a low-key, warm atmosphere and a staff who reach out to make guests feel at home.

While children over age 8 are welcome, Red Clover is geared towards adults and couples, and would make for a great romantic getaway, mother-daughter, sisters, or girlfriend weekend. And destination weddings are big here too.

Accommodations range from rooms with a queen-sized bed and private bath, to rooms with king-sized bed, private bath, double Jacuzzi tub, gas fireplace, deck or balcony. The larger rooms can accommodate a third person on a roll-away bed. Freshly-prepared breakfast and afternoon tea featuring local products are included in the rates.

After an active (or inactive) day, guests gather in the Great Room to enjoy the mountain views and a cocktail or glass of wine while feeling cozy around the fireplace. Games, books, and a selection of DVDs are available.

Farm to Table Dining

“Foodies” will be especially pleased with the dining options at The Red Clover. Chef Dennis Vieira, who was trained in Italy and France, uses fresh ingredients from local farms in his casual Tavern as well in the Fine Dining Room. With the resources from area farm partners, he creates amazing salads, vegetable and side dishes along with beef, pork, fish, duck, quail and other poultry creations.

There is an extensive wine list from wineries throughout the area and the world. Be sure to leave room for dessert with ingredients like wild Maine blueberries, local maple syrup and area cheeses. The restaurants are gathering spots for guests of RCI, as well as locals, and guests of other area inns because of their gourmet reputation.

Exploring Vermont

In winter, activities range from cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and sledding on property, to downhill skiing at nearby Killington and Pico slopes (free shuttle is provided). Spring, summer and fall offer numerous nearby walking, hiking and biking trails (mountain biking lessons are offered and maps are provided), foliage tours, farm tours, bonfires, a hot tub and shopping opportunities; an indoor pool, fitness center, indoor tennis courts, yoga and golf are nearby.

Spa treatments such as facials, body scrubs, body wraps and various massages can be arranged, and are performed on premise. If you need guidance in planning your activities, help is right at hand from the friendly staff, who are anxious to share their love of the area with you.

The Red Clover Inn & Restaurant is located at 7 Woodward Road, Mendon VT 05751 (802/775-2290). Rooms begin at $125 per night and suites at $195/night. There’s a free shuttle to/from Rutland train station and airport making the inn suitable for planning a group celebration like a family reunion, wedding or civil union.

    Wow, looks good, especially the end. I was looking for that subject for a few days across the nest, however there was nothing valuable. So pleased to achieve your post at the conclusion. I am excited about this subject, and I want to be always conscious of the latest news. That is a joy to see your article and eventually clarify myself.

    Hi, thanks for the huge list of good ideas! I reconnected with an old childhood memory of travelling on house boats.

  • Samster

    Wow, that’s a great list. The Free Tours By Foot sounds amazing and such a great way to explore a city. Have you guys ever tried indoor skydiving? It’s not cheap, but it’s a great activity for the whole family. Some of the centers even offer a Virtual Reality experience. With more and more tunnels popping up it’s become quite easy to find a spot nearby. For those interested check out dropzone.com/indoor/ . They’ve got a nifty tunnel finder.

    First of all, you need to find out what type of vacation each member of your family prefers. At lunch, dinner, or watching your favorite TV show in the evening, try discussing your upcoming vacation together. Listen to suggestions from everyone, remember where you have already visited and, taking into account the interests of the child, try to choose the right direction. It should be borne in mind all the details: the possibility of excess spending, the size of the vacation budget, the presence of health problems, interests, hobbies and hobbies. If you are organizing a trip with your child, you will have a wonderful joint vacation!

    The moon landing marked the culmination of America’s Cold War human spaceflight program and positioned itself as a global leader in science and technology. Apollo 11, the mission Armstrong and Aldrin flew with colleague Michael Collins, represented the U.S. accomplishing a seemingly impossible goal on a seemingly impossible timeline. Fifty years later, the world is remembering the historic mission and its impact on society and science, thanks to all these 50 COSMIC WAYS TO CELEBRATE SPACE.

    I am also a collector of space memorabilia and I run a website dedicated to Space Exploration memorabilia https://www.space-collectibles.com . In fact, I leave in Paris, France. (Yes, that does mean I drink too much wine and eat too much cheese) . Since the age of 21, I became a big fan of Space Exploration as I studied in Cap Canaveral Florida, and worked with the engineers that put Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon. So, this is perhaps the reason why I became a pasionate Space Collectioner of photos from the space race in the 60’s from Nasa and Soviet programs. I whish I could be in all these 50 COSMIC WAYS TO CELEBRATE SPACE

    Hey thanks for such a nice article, there is nothing better than getting away with the fam or group of mates into the wilderness and just relaxing while staring into those embers. I go camping regularly and I know you stated unplugged but if you dont play an instrument I highly recommend bringing along a nice loud Bluetooth speaker to jam away with all of you friends into the late night. That and beer ofcourse.

    Thanks again and keep up the good work

    Doing so saves money on your shipping costs. Most travelers are charged for gas as they are free. Tourists save money on car rentals and pay for their travels.
